Spotlight on young children and nature

Nature exploration is fundamental to young children's curiosity, discovery, and sense of wonder- it supports their growth in all developmental domains. In this collection of engaging articles from NAEYC's journal Young Children, teachers of children from infancy through age 8 will learn about using nature education to address early learning standards, to involve families and the community, and to encourage children's appreciation of the natural world. The book offers a comprehensive resource list and a professional development guide with questions and activities to help readers reflect on current practices and incorporate new ones.
